FOREWORD The Government of India has set an ambitious target of imparting skills to 30 crores people, one out of every four Indians, by 2020 to help them secure jobs as part of the National Skills Development Policy. Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs) play a vital role in this process especially in terms of providing skilled manpower. Keeping this in mind, and for providing the current industry relevant skill training to Trainees, ITI syllabus has been recently updated with the help of comprising various stakeholder's viz. Industries, Entrepreneurs, Academicians and representatives from ITIs. The National Instructional Media Institute (NIMI), Chennai, has now come up with instructional material to suit the revised curriculum for Engineering Drawing 1st Year (For All 1 year & 2 year Trades) NSQF Commom for all engineering trades under CTS will help the trainees to get an international equivalency standard where their skill proficiency and competency will be duly recognized across the globe and this will also increase the scope of recognition of prior learning. NSQF trainees will also get the opportunities to promote life long learning and skill development. I have no doubt that with NSQF the trainers and trainees of ITIs, and all stakeholders will derive maximum benefits from these IMPs and that NIMI's effort will go a long way in improving the quality of Vocational training in the country. The Executive Director & Staff of NIMI and members of Media Development Committee deserve appreciation for their contribution in bringing out this publication.

PREFACE The National Instructional Media Institute(NIMI) was set up at Chennai, by the Directorate General of Training, Ministry of skill Development and Entrepreneurship, Government of India, with the technical assistance from the Govt of the Federal Republic of Germany with the prime objective of developing and disseminating instructional Material for various trades as per prescribed syllabus and Craftsman Training Programme(CTS) under NSQF levels. The Instructional materials are developed and produced in the form of Instructional Media Packages (IMPs), consisting of Trade Theory, Trade Practical, Test and Assignment Book, Instructor Guide, Wall charts, Transparencies and other supportive materials. The above material will enable to achieve overall improvement in the standard of training in ITIs. A national multi-skill programme called SKILL INDIA, was launched by the Government of India, through a Gazette Notification from the Ministry of Finance (Dept of Economic Affairs), Govt of India, dated 27th December 2013, with a view to create opportunities, space and scope for the development of talents of Indian Youth, and to develop those sectors under Skill Development. The emphasis is to skill the Youth in such a manner to enable them to get employment and also improve Entrepreneurship by providing training, support and guidance for all occupation that were of traditional types. The training programme would be in the lines of International level, so that youths of our Country can get employed within the Country or Overseas employment. The National Skill Qualification Framework (NSQF), anchored at the National Skill Development Agency(NSDA), is a Nationally Integrated Education and competency-based framework, to organize all qualifications according to a series of levels of Knowledge, Skill and Aptitude. Under NSQF the learner can acquire the Certification for Competency needed at any level through formal, non-formal or informal learning. The Engineering Drawing 1st Year (Comon for All 1 year & 2 year Engineering Trades under CTS) is one of the book developed by the core group members as per the NSQF syllabus. The Engineering Drawing (Common for All 1 year & 2 year Engineering Trades under CTS as per NSQF) 1st Year is the outcome of the collective efforts of experts from Field Institutes of DGT, Champion ITI’s for each of the Sectors, and also Media Development Committee (MDC) members and Staff of NIMI. NIMI wishes that the above material will fulfill to satisfy the long needs of the trainees and instructors and shall help the trainees for their Employability in Vocational Training. NIMI would like to take this opportunity to convey sincere thanks to all the Members and Media Development Committee (MDC) members. R. P.

INTRODUCTION Theory and procedure along with the related exercises for further practice This book on theory and procedure along with related exercises contains theoretical information on 1st year Engineering drawing (for engineering trades of 1 year and 2 year) and procedure of drawing/ sketching different exercise for further practice are also available. Wherever required, BIS specification has been used.. Exercise for further practice The practice exercise is given with Theory and procedure for 1st Year book made obsolete as it was felt that, it is very difficult to work in workbook using drawing instruments. It is well known fact that, any drawing is prepared on suitable standard size of drawing sheets only. The instructor is herewith advised to go through the instructions given below and to follow them in view of imparting much drawing skill in the trainees. Acquiring the above said ability and doing small drawings is not a simple task. These books will provide a good platform for achieving the said skills. Time allotment: Duration of 1st Year : 80 Hrs Time allotment for each module has been given below. Common to all 1 year and 2 year Engineering Trades.

If separate table and chair facility is available for every trainee then it is preferred to use A3 sheets and if the drawing hall is provided with desks then A4 sheets may be used. However while preparing bigger drawings on A4 sheets suitable reduction scale to be used or muiltiple sheets may be used for detailed and assembly drawings. First the border and the title block to be drawn only for the first sheet of the chapter. Eg. for conical sections only first sheet will have the title block whereas the rest of the sheets of that chapter will have only borders. Serial number of sheet and total no. of sheets to be mentioned on each sheet. The completed sheet to be punched and filled in a box file/ suitable files and preserved by the trainees carefully after the approval of instructors, VPS and Principals of the Institute.

  • Tessellation Techniques
    Tessellation Techniques Stefanie Mandelbaum Jacqueline S. Guttman 118 Tunicflower Lane West Windsor, NJ 08550, USA E-mail [email protected] Abstract Tessellations are continuous repetitions of the same geometric or organic shape, a tile or tessera in Latin . Inspired by the abstract tessellations of the Alhambra, aided by a correspondence with Coxeter, Escher developed a method of transforming polygonal tessellations into representational tessellations of organic shapes. Mathematical Presentation Tessellations of polygons can be edge-to-edge and vertex-to-vertex (Fig. 1) or translated to be edge-to- edge but not vertex-to-vertex (Fig. 2). Figure 1: Quadrilaterals, edge-to-edge and vertex-to-vertex Figure 2: Quadrilaterals, translated Escher first determined which polygons could tessellate by themselves, e.g. triangles, quadrilaterals, regular hexagons (Figs. 3 and 4 ), and which could not, e.g. regular octagons and regular pentagons (Fig. 5). (A polygon is regular if all of its sides and interior angles are congruent.) Figure 3: Quadrilaterals Figure 4: Triangles Figure 5: Regular Pentagons At the vertex of a tessellation, the sum of the angles of the adjacent polygons is 360 degrees. So, for example, a regular hexagon can tessellate by itself because at the vertex of the tessellation the sum of the angles is 360 degrees, each of the three adjoining angles being 120 degrees (Fig. 6). Conversely, regular octagons cannot tessellate by themselves because each angle of a regular octagon is 135 degrees and 135 is not a factor of 360 (Fig. 7). 2(135)=270. 360-270=90. Therefore, the other polygon needed to complete the tessellation is a square.

  • Fundamental Theorems in Mathematics
    SOME FUNDAMENTAL THEOREMS IN MATHEMATICS OLIVER KNILL Abstract. An expository hitchhikers guide to some theorems in mathematics. Criteria for the current list of 243 theorems are whether the result can be formulated elegantly, whether it is beautiful or useful and whether it could serve as a guide [6] without leading to panic. The order is not a ranking but ordered along a time-line when things were writ- ten down. Since [556] stated “a mathematical theorem only becomes beautiful if presented as a crown jewel within a context" we try sometimes to give some context. Of course, any such list of theorems is a matter of personal preferences, taste and limitations. The num- ber of theorems is arbitrary, the initial obvious goal was 42 but that number got eventually surpassed as it is hard to stop, once started. As a compensation, there are 42 “tweetable" theorems with included proofs. More comments on the choice of the theorems is included in an epilogue. For literature on general mathematics, see [193, 189, 29, 235, 254, 619, 412, 138], for history [217, 625, 376, 73, 46, 208, 379, 365, 690, 113, 618, 79, 259, 341], for popular, beautiful or elegant things [12, 529, 201, 182, 17, 672, 673, 44, 204, 190, 245, 446, 616, 303, 201, 2, 127, 146, 128, 502, 261, 172]. For comprehensive overviews in large parts of math- ematics, [74, 165, 166, 51, 593] or predictions on developments [47]. For reflections about mathematics in general [145, 455, 45, 306, 439, 99, 561]. Encyclopedic source examples are [188, 705, 670, 102, 192, 152, 221, 191, 111, 635].

While at first sight this might seem an id- iosyncratic choice of subject matter for such a detailed and elaborate study, a moment’s reflection reveals the worthiness of its selection. Human beings, “being as they be”, tend to take for granted some of their greatest discoveries (witness the wheel, fire, language, music,...). In Mathe- matics, the once flourishing topic of Triangle Geometry has turned fallow and fallen out of vogue (although Phil Davis offers us hope that it may be resusci- tated by The Computer [70]). A regrettable casualty of this general decline in prominence has been the Equilateral Triangle. Yet, the facts remain that Mathematics resides at the very core of human civilization, Geometry lies at the structural heart of Mathematics and the Equilateral Triangle provides one of the marble pillars of Geometry.

  • TIMES and EQUIVALENT SYSTEMS II 6.1 for Concurrent
    1 of 6 TIMES AND EQUIVALENT SYSTEMS II 6.1 for concurrent forces Varignon theorem: Varignon's theorem is a statement in Euclidean geometry by Pierre Varignon that was first published in 1731. It deals with the construction of a particular parallelogram (Varignon parallelogram) from an arbitrary quadrangle. The midpoints of the sides of an arbitrary quadrangle form a parallelogram. If the quadrangle is convex or reentrant, i.e. not a crossing quadrangle, then the area of the parallelogram is half as big as the area of the quadrangle. If one introduces the concept of oriented areas for n-gons, then the area equality above holds for crossed quadrangles as well. The Varignon parallelogram exists even for a skew quadrilateral, and is planar whether or not the quadrilateral is planar. It can be generalized to the midpoint polygon of an arbitrary polygon. Special cases The Varignon parallelogram is a rhombus if and only if the two diagonals of the quadrilateral have equal length, that is, if the quadrilateral is an equidiagonal quadrilateral. The Varignon parallelogram is a rectangle if and only if the diagonals of the quadrilateral are perpendicular, that is, if the quadrilateral is an orthodiagonal quadrilateral. Proof Varignon's theorem is easily proved as a theorem of affine geometry organized as linear algebra with the linear combinations restricted to coefficients summing to 1, also called affine orbarycentric coordinates. The proof applies even to skew quadrilaterals in spaces of any dimension. Any three points E, F, G are completed to a parallelogram (lying in the plane containing E, F, and G) by taking its fourth vertex to be E − F + G.

It is so rewarding to see this session, which offers such a great opportunity for interaction between students and professional mathematicians, continue to grow. The judges you see here today are professional mathematicians from institutionsaround the world. They are advisors, colleagues, new PhD.s, and administrators. We have acknowledgedmany of them in this book- let; however, many judges here volunteered on site. Their support is vital to the success of the session and we thank them. We are supported financially by the National Science Foundation. Our online submission system and technical support is key to managing the ever-growing number of poster entries we receive. Thanks to MAA staff, especially Julia Dills and Maia Henley for their work setting up and managing the system this year. Preparation of the abstract book is a time-consuming task. Thanks to Beverly Ruedi for doing the final production work on the abstract book. There are many details of the poster session that begin with putting out the advertisement in FOCUS in February, ensuring students have travel money, and organizing tables in the room we are in today that are attributed to Gerard Venema (MAA Associate Secretary), Linda Braddy (MAA), and Donna Salter (AMS).
